Talking Wood bike frame manufacturer recommendation needed

With Renovo going out of business does anyone know of some other high quality manufacturer's?

If you into mixed metal + wood, check Nevi Titanium out of Italy

Not what you are asking for...but if you want your traditional ride to be painted to look like wood...

Oh hell ... I want to build one of those BAD. $1200 seems like a deal, and they’re in OH, so it’s not like you have to travel to Latvia or something. I know what I’m asking for this Christmas

Lyrebird makes frames from a combination of tone woods and carbon primarily.

The Renovo was the best one and the best looking one; the only other one that comes in at distant second place (in my opinion of course) is the Materia https://materiabikes.com/ It looks more sophisticated then the others that I've see, maybe there's another company out there that I don't know about that looks better that I haven't found.

You could look into bamboo which in my opinion would be more resilient to damage and weather changes. I like Calfee the best in this group.
